Check the Site regulations.

Arrivals

Report to reception immediately on arrival.

Vehicle Movement

Keep to roadways unless otherwise directed.
Adhere to speed limits. Note that these are
generally 10 mph while on site. (Remember
that the stopping distance on grass is
considerably greater than on tarmac.)
Only a person in possession of a current
driving licence may drive on site.
Park as advised on your pitch. Where possible
leave 6 metres (20ft) of free space around
your vehicle.

Use of Site

Use the electrical mains hook-up in the correct
manner and with caution.
Ensure that all fresh water taps/connections
are turned off after use.
Have care and consideration when using all
facilities (toilets and showers etc) and leave
them clean and tidy. Young children should be
escorted.

Cautions

To avoid possible damage to sewage
purification works, only approved chemical
fluids must be used. Under no circumstances
may coal tar, phenol or caustic-based fluids
be used. Disposable nappies and similar bulky
items must not be put into the chemical closet
emptying points but should be wrapped in a
polythene bag and placed in the container
provided. (Put all litter in containers marked
for the purpose.)

Noise

Do not make excessive noise.
Children should be restrained from making
excessive noise.
Flying kites and model aircraft and the use
of items like catapults or air guns as well as
ball games should not be permitted among, or
close to, caravans.
Musical instruments, music players, radios
and televisions should not be used to the
inconvenience of other people on site.
Open and close doors quietly.
Power generators must be adequately silenced
and used with consideration and according to
restricted site times.

Dogs and Pets

All dogs and other pets should be kept under
control.
Unless permission has been granted, no
animal should be let loose on the site and
leads should not exceed 3 metres (10 ft).
No animal should be allowed in the shower/
toilet block.
Do not let animals foul the site.

Fire Precautions

Adhere to and make note of all fire
!
precautions including the whereabouts
of the fire points.
It is recommended that a 1kg (2.2lb) dry
powder fire extinguisher is carried. It should
comply with BS 5423 ISO 7465 and be marked
BSI or FOC approved. It is important to check
at regular intervals that the extinguisher
is working as is required by types meeting
BS 5423. Make sure that the use-by date is
frequently checked.
Careful thought is necessary for the
positioning of a fire extinguisher, which should
be near to the door but not too close to the
cooking equipment where sudden flames could
make it unreachable. In the kitchen area, a fire
blanket is a worthwhile precaution.
Unless permission has been granted barbecues
should not be used. When permission has
been given, consideration should be given to
the annoyance that can be caused to other
users of the site. Open fires are not allowed.

Awnings and Tents

Awnings and tents should only be used when
permission has been granted.
When on grass and staying for more than a
few days, the ground sheet and/or side flaps of
awnings should be periodically raised in order
to avoid damage to the ground.
